Captain Toad - Treasure Tracker

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a puzzle-platform adventure game where players control the plucky Captain Toad (or his companion Toadette) as he navigates obstacle-filled levels to collect Power Stars while rescuing Toadette from the villainous giant crow Wingo. Gameplay features sandbox-style levels with creative puzzle mechanics like extending toads' arms and legs for reaching high or low areas, rotating the camera freely, and solving environmental puzzles without a time limit. The story involves repeated chapters where the player controls one Toad to save the other from Wingo's lair, leading to a final battle against the antagonist. It stands out with charming Toad characters, innovative level design building on Mario 3D World concepts, and cooperative two-player mode on the 3DS version. The game was ported to 3DS in 2018 with extra Odyssey-inspired levels.
